A few days in Qatar and Bahrain

Hi there, I’d like to spend a few days in these two countries. How many days do you recommend? Any ideas for things to see? Which airline should I take to go from one to the other? I think there are no more direct flights? Thanks

Hi there, following up on our PM, here are some photos I posted when I lived in Qatar:

For Bahrain, it's here: worldblogueur.blogspot.fr/...h/label/Bahre%C3%AFn

As for the number of days, I’d say 4 (Qatar) and 3 (Manama).

For flights, it looks like you’ll need to connect through Kuwait City or Muscat.

Thanks Pierre for the tips—I’ll check out your blog again, it’s a real goldmine of info and great photos...

Thanks,

I just noticed you replied to my thread "A Few Photos of Qatar."

Happy planning,

Pierre🙂

You really made me want to go! Plus the recent documentaries on Arte. I’ll have to think about it for winter 2018/19—I’ll probably get back to you about it. Too bad we can’t travel directly from one country to the other...

hi there, I did go to Qatar in January (and Bahrain) for 5 days + 3; the trip was really enjoyable. I missed the Desert Rose—it wasn’t open yet, maybe next time? We stayed in Souk Waqif, a lively and interesting spot. Your photos made me want to go! my photos: https://youtu.be/y5USaaWdZCY (16 min)

Thanks Dany for this feedback (destinations that are pretty rare on VF)

Yes, Qatar gets a bad rap in France, rightly or wrongly?... Here’s a slideshow on Bahrain—fewer sights to see, but I really liked Muharraq. https://youtu.be/doQfeu2cK58

Hello,

How did you finally travel from one country to the other?

Hi, via Oman Air

Doha-Muscat, Muscat-Bahrain?

The opposite for us—we started with Bahrain.

Hi,

Thanks for the videos and info on Bahrain and Qatar. It’s really tempting to combine the two, especially since they’re so close.
